Ah, but it's useful to go one step further, since the original file
may have a different name; in fact the result may contain sections
from several source files.  So a way to capture all of the #line
directives functionality is needed.

As for @label>, it doesn't feel visible enough; here the old tradition
of using 'goto' works fine.
